We're blessed with a truly innovative and agile bunch of musicians and singers here in the Triangle. No, they're neither rockers nor rappers—it's the North Carolina Opera, which, under Timothy Myers' direction, has been laying down killer seasons of world-class, semi-staged performances for years now. Come hear NC Opera announce its upcoming season in a family-friendly event with live performances from the company, craft beers, prizes including season subscriptions and a pop-up store from Quail Ridge Books. Opera's hot here.
